The FTP now seems to work but however this gives a message like " Could not open FTP connection to ftp.freebsd.org: undefined error: 0" how can these 2 error message be solved. Any help will help. thanks ----- Original Message ----- From: taxman To: Sukhbinder Singh Sent: Sunday, March 23, 2003 11:10 AM Subject: Re: FreeBSD Installation Problems > > really, why do you persist in sending html mail to this list?
